Central Virginia Regional Rescue

Animal rescue in Forest, VA

Central Virginia Regional Rescue is a volunteer-based non-profit dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of regional animals into permanent and loving homes. Through education and community outreach, we aspire to eliminate the need for euthanasia as a means of pet population control. We are a 501c3 organization and all donations are tax deductible. We have no facility and all our animals live as temporary family members in foster homes. We have no paid employees and every dollar donated goes directly to our animals.

Additional adoption info

We value a comprehensive adoption process that includes a strong focus on matching the right animal with the right owner to minimize future struggles within the family. All animals in our care receive recommended (age-appropriate) vaccinations and tests, are given monthly parasite prevention, and are spayed/neutered and microchipped.
